Webber should just have decked the little twat. Or at least roughed him up a bit and humiliated him in front of the camera. He surely cannot need the money.

Anything would have been better than sulking and producing a big pout for the camera..

I agree

I reckon old Mark might not be your typical macho Aussie

which side does he bat for?

I was discussing with my mate yesterday - god help Vettel if it gets to a point where he can't mathematically win the championship because i'm confident he will simply take Vettel out!

I think Mark is macho but I also know he's the oldest one out there so he knows how to bit his tongue. I'm sure he decided to stay relatively quiet and let Vettle shoot himself down.

Red Bull managed a 2.05 second pit stop in Malaysia (for Webber):

That's pretty fast.

It's also a claim based on their own data rather than the tv footage. If McLarens record is based on TV footage, and that footage is faster than Redbulls, then their claim means little.

Of course Redbull got all 4 wheels on in that time so kudos.
